Common questions
What kind of work are Durban models best for?
Swimwear, resort wear, lifestyle, retail and outdoor campaigns — the coastal environment is a working backdrop, not a limitation. Several also take commercial and catalogue bookings.
How do I book a Durban model?
Send an enquiry from the profile with your dates, location and what the images will be used for. The model replies from their inbox and you agree the rate and details directly.
What do Durban models charge?
Guide day rates appear on each profile. Durban rates are often gentler than Johannesburg and Cape Town for the same work — worth checking if your production budget is fixed.
